All Shook Up


There are certainly many blogs that are better-informed about Hollywood's obsession with plastic surgery, but I can't help but say something about the tragedy that is Priscilla Presley. Bernard first mentioned it to me when he saw her on Oprah not too long ago, but I didn't want to believe it was as bad as he said. (It is.) As much as I like to kid around about this stuff, I'm the first to admit that most women are in a can't-win situation. If they allow themselves to age, we call them old hags. If they have work done, we rip on them relentlessly. But have we really created a situation where there truly is no in between? Sadly, the answer is written all over Priscilla Presley's once-beautiful face. (While these pictures give you the general idea, you really have to see her in motion to really understand the devastation. The botox and cheak implants aside, her lips are so artificially turned up in this almost Elvis-like curl that begs the question why someone doesn't just scream at her to stop what she's doing to herself.
